Lord Krishna battles with Banasura to rescue Aniruddha, who had been imprisoned by Banasura. A fierce battle ensues between Lord Krishna and Lord Shiva, who acts as Banasura's commander-in-chief. They use powerful weapons against each other but are equally matched. Lord Krishna then severs 1000 of Banasura's arms and spares his life at Lord Shiva's request. Banasura surrenders and bows before Lord Krishna, who returns to Dvaraka with Aniruddha and his bride amid celebrations by the citizens.
